About a week ago or so, my computer started freezing whenever I plug in a device to one of my USB ports (I have 3 of them). I have to restart the computer to get it unfrozen. I have an HP Pavilion dv 8000.
I use an iPod shuffle, a webcam and occasionally a flashdrive. I used the flashdrive around the time this issue started, but I don’t know if that was the cause.
This is what I’ve tried so far:
1. Uninstalled USB hardware in device drivers
2. Took battery out, waited 30 minutes, restarted
3. Ran the usbman test listed in a previous discussion of this topic and everything checked out. http://www.usbman.com/WebDrivers/Intel%20USB%20System%20Check/USBREADY.EXE
Thanks for any help!
